Ride trough a forest

Come and enjoy the seasons of the north and the forest with reliable finnhorses. You can also enjoy the atmosphere and service of a village blacksmith’s workshop. Hiking to the village blacksmith’s workshop is a two-hour program where you get to know the horses, ride the horses on the farm’s private forest roads and trails, and spend time in the village blacksmith’s old workshop by the campfire.

We can hike calmly, but it’s good to have some previous riding experience for hiking. The field trip proceeds according to the level and wishes of the group.

During the program you will get to know the finnhorse. You can take care of the horses with us and you can equip your horse for the trip with our help. If you wish, we will equip the horses.

There is a safe and horse-friendly ramp for getting up to the saddle, which is also suitable for people with reduced mobility. We will guide you on how to handle horses.

The destination of the field trip on the farm's private forest roads and paths is an idyllic village blacksmith's workshop. After the riding experience, snacks await in the workshop. Servings include savory and sweet snacks and hot drinks. The serving is enhanced by atmospheric stories about a finnhorse.

The whole program lasts 2 hours.
